Today’s toddler storytime was more of a sing-along than a traditional story program. Even our big book had everyone on their feet for some gross motor activity. We waddled like ducks, strutted like turkeys, and brayed like donkeys while we read I Love Animals by Flora McDonnell.

We also used a lift-the-flap book to sing “Old MacDonald Had a Farm.” We didn’t read the text of the book, but we looked at the animals and imitated the sounds they make.
